STRETCH GOAL UNLOCKED: We’ve Failed Up To Koala Sticker Sheets For Everyone!
almost 5 years ago
– Sun, May 09, 2021 at 01:09:41 AM
Fail Fam!
We did it – we've unlocked those super-adorable and failure-affirming Koala Sticker Sheets for every physical-level backer!
That means we’re closing in on the shiniest stretch goal in all recorded human history (okay, well that MIGHT be a BIT of an exaggeration) AKA GOLD FOIL BAY-BAY!
And, if we #FailUp together, we can then cross the next MASSIVE funding goal to hit Death Nut Challenge #3. Never say that J.L. Westover isn’t willing to suffer (over and over) for his art!
The entire #FailSquad is blown away by your commitment to our failure and we’re excited to see how we can all find a way to collectively stumble at the finish line.
Don’t forget to also check out the amazing purchasable add-ons like Mugs, Pins and now a Tote Bag! By adding the funds to your pledge now it not only locks in your items but also helps us smash through to more stretch goals.
Email [email protected] with any questions you’ve got. We’re here for you!
ADD-ON REVEALED: “Failing With Style” tote! + Happy #FailFriday!

Fail Friends!
Welcome back for another #FailFriday! We’re comfortably on the back half of the campaign now and we’re SO thrilled with the response we’ve received. We also REALLY enjoyed all of your amazing Failure stories from last week's #FailFriday – they made us laugh and really helped us feel like we weren’t alone in our Failure! Thank you! We’ll get to more #FailFriday goodness in a second, but first, we’ve got ANOTHER reveal for y’all!
ADD-ON REVEALED: “Failing With Style” Tote!
Mock-up Only.
We got totes, y’all! Who says Failing can’t be fashionable? We made sure to get the gusseted kind, too, because who doesn’t love a good gusset?
Price: $20 + shipping!
Specs: 10"W x 12"H x 3"D with 24" Handles
Want to grab a tote? We’ll be selling them via BackerKit after the campaign ends, but if you add the extra funds to your pledge right now, you’ll be able to help us reach our stretch goals even faster and the money will be available as a credit in BackerKit after the campaign ends – so go for it! Tote it up! And don’t forget about our pin and mug add-ons either - which you can totally carry around in said tote!
FAIL FRIDAY STORY TIME!
And in the spirit of #FailFriday, Justin is back again with another failure story! Take it away!
Don’t forget to send us more of your best Failure stories! We live for them! Just post them in the comments below or use the #FailFriday on social – and we’ll definitely respond if we can!
UPCOMING STREAMS
And for the streaming crowd, here’s Justin’s schedule for the weekend:
Don’t miss the chilliest stream on the internet! Justin will be attempting to complete the Mr. Lovenstein 2000-piece puzzle – he’s honestly made it farther than we thought he would, but he needs your help!
HOW IT STARTED:
HOW IT'S GOING:
And remember, if Justin can complete the puzzle before the campaign ends, everyone will receive a special bonus reward!
STRETCH GOAL / LIMITED TIER UPDATE
Looks like we sold a whole bunch of the "Death of Gabe" EXCLUSIVE FAIL tiers in the last couple days, so congratulations to all of you who secured your piece of Mr. Lovenstein history! For those of you who’re on the fence -- it’s not too late! Head over to the main page right now to get yours! We expect these will be gone once we hit the final rush in the last days of the campaign.
And in more exciting news, we’re just 2k away from hitting our next stretch goal and unlocking this free Koala Sticker Sheet for every physical backer! Let's do this!
Thanks again to all of you for the help! Heading into the back stretch of our sweaty campaign, we couldn’t ask to spend it with a finer bunch of folks.

Fail Friends!
It’s true! We just unlocked another stretch goal! Now this bookmark is yours, ALL YOURS! (If you back any physical level, that is.) Thank you so much to everyone who has supported this campaign so far – we’re just about halfway through and we can’t believe how much love we’re getting for our sweaty book. We hope you brought a towel!
And because you’re all so great, we’ve decided to reveal another exciting reward – A SURPRISE STRETCH GOAL!
REVEALED: KOALA STICKER SHEET
That’s right! The Fail Squad loves this lazy koala and we thought you might, too. And what’s even more exciting is we’re only 8K away from being able to unlock it for all of you -- so please continue to SPREAD THE WORD about this campaign and we’ll continue unlocking more cool stuff!
We also wanted to take some time to highlight that all our EPIC FAIL and COMIC FAIL tiers are completely sold out, which means if you want to get in on the RAREST MR. LOVENSTEIN COMIC EVER, you’ll want to upgrade to the EXCLUSIVE FAIL tier!
Here’s a little preview from the comic – and as a reminder, this full comic is only available as a signed and numbered archival quality print, will NEVER appear online or in a book, and won’t be available ever again – so if you want to own a piece of Mr. Lovenstein history, all you have to do is upgrade to the EXCLUSIVE FAIL tier before we run out.
Lots more surprises and updates heading your way soon! Thanks again for spreading the word – the Mr. Lovenstein community is the best!
Until next time – keep failing!
-The Fail Squad
PS. [email protected] is still standing by to assist with all your Failure-related needs!
